Objective To systematically evaluate the therapeutic effects of different surgical procedures for ischemic mitral regurgitation (IMR). Methods Computer searches were conducted in CNKI, Wanfang, VIP, CBM, PubMed, Cochrane Library, Embase, and Web of Science, with the search time limit from the inception of the databases to February 2024. Two researchers independently screened the literature, extracted data, used the Cochrane bias risk assessment tool to evaluate the quality of the included studies, and used Stata 17.0 software to analyze the data. Results A total of 19 randomized controlled trials involving 6139 patients were finally included, involving six surgical procedures, and the overall quality of the included studies was relatively high. The results of the network meta-analysis showed that the 30-day all-cause mortality rate of mitral valve repair (MVr) was significantly lower than that of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) [OR=0.24, 95%CI (0.07, 0.87), P<0.01], mitral valve replacement (MVR) [OR=0.43, 95%CI (0.23, 0.79), P=0.02], CABG+MVR [OR=0.21, 95%CI (0.04, 0.95), P=0.03] and transcatheter mitral valve edge-to-edge repair (TEER) using MitraClip [OR=0.13, 95%CI (0.02, 0.87), P<0.01]. The 30-day all-cause mortality rate of CABG+MVr was significantly lower than that of CABG [OR=0.56, 95%CI (0.33, 0.93), P=0.02] and CABG+MVR [OR=0.48, 95%CI (0.24, 0.94), P=0.04], and the best probability ranking results showed that MVR might be the most effective in reducing the 30-day all-cause mortality rate. The incidence of renal complications in CABG+MVr was significantly lower than that in CABG+MVR [OR=0.42, 95%CI (0.21, 0.83), P=0.01]; the best probability ranking results showed that CABG+MVr might be the most effective in reducing renal complications. Conclusion The current limited evidence suggests that CABG+MVr and MVr may be the best surgical intervention methods for IMR patients at present. Due to the limitations of the number and quality of included studies, the above conclusions still need to be verified by more high-quality studies.

Objective To clarify the evidence of the frequency and risk factors for falls in knee osteoarthritis(KOA)of adults by meta-analysis.Methods Computerized searches of the CNKI,VIP,Wanfang data,CBM,PubMed,Cochrane Library,Embase,Web of Science were conducted for literature on risk factors for falls in adults with KOA from the inception of the databases to August 2024.After literature screening,data extraction,and quality evaluation,RevMan 5.4 software was used for Meta-analysis.Results A total of 26 articles were involved.Meta-analysis result showed that the rate of falls was 29.0％.Factors associated with increased risk of falls included being female(OR=1.35),decreased lower limb muscle strength(OR=1.72),decreased knee flexion muscle strength(OR=7.05),decreased static posture stability(OR=1.28),opioid use(OR=1.79),antidepressant use(OR=1.69),frequent stair climbing(OR=7.58),combined neurological disease(OR=1.77),history of falls(OR=3.29)and fear of falling(OR=2.54).Conclusion The rate of falls of patients with KOA is high.The adults with KOA who are women,have lower muscle strength of lower limbs and knee flexion muscle strength,poorer static posture stability,use opioids,antidepressant,frequent stair climbing,combined neurological disorders,previous falls in the past year and fear of falls are at higher risk of falls.Healthcare professionals should dynamically assess and detect the risk of falls in the patients with KOA and adopt targeted,individualized interventions to prevent falls.

Nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVF), predominantly affecting the elderly, can lead to intractable pain, vertebral collapse, progressive kyphotic deformity, and neurological impairment, significantly compromising patients′ quality of life. There exists considerable debate on diagnosis and management of OVF, encompassing key issues such as clinical diagnosis and staging criteria for nonunion, surgical indications and procedure selection, and postoperative rehabilitation planning. Currently, there lacks standardized clinical guideline and expert consensus on the diagnosis and management of OVF nonunion in China. To address this gap, Minimally Invasive Surgery Group of Chinese Orthopedic Association, Osteoporosis Committee of Chinese Association of Orthopedic Surgeons, Prevention and Rehabilitation Committee for Osteoporosis of Chinese Association of Rehabilitation Medicine and Minimally Invasive Orthopedic Surgery Branch of China Association for Geriatric Care jointly organized domestic experts in spinal surgery, endocrinology, and rehabilitation to formulate the Clinical guideline for the diagnosis and treatment for nonunion of osteoporotic vertebral fractures ( version 2025), based on existing literature and clinical experience and adhering to principles of scientific rigor and practicality. The guideline provided 13 evidence-based recommendations encompassing diagnosis and treatment of OVF nonunion, aiming to standardize its clinical management.

Objective To systematically evaluate the impact of pulmonary hypertension (PH) on the prognosis of patients with severe aortic stenosis (AS) undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR). Methods A computerized search was conducted in CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP, CBM, PubMed, The Cochrane Library, EMbase, and Web of Science databases from inception to June 2023 for cohort studies on the prognostic impact of PH in severe AS patients undergoing TAVR. Two researchers independently screened the literature, extracted data, and assessed the quality of included studies. Stata 17.0 software was used for meta-analysis. Results A total of 16 cohort studies were included, all with Newcastle-Ottawa Scale scores≥7. Meta-analysis results showed that, compared with AS patients without PH, those with PH had significantly higher 1-year all-cause mortality after TAVR [OR=2.10, 95%CI (1.60, 2.75), P<0.01], 30-day all-cause mortality [OR=2.09, 95%CI (1.54, 2.83), P<0.01], and cardiovascular mortality [OR=1.49, 95%CI (1.18, 1.90), P<0.01]. The differences between the two groups in major bleeding events, stroke, myocardial infarction, pacemaker implantation, and postoperative renal failure were not statistically significant. For outcome indicators with significant heterogeneity, subgroup analyses were performed based on PH measurement methods, diagnostic criteria, and different types of PH. The results showed that most subgroup combined results were consistent with the overall findings and that heterogeneity was significantly reduced. Conclusion PH significantly increases the 30-day all-cause mortality, 1-year all-cause mortality, and cardiovascular mortality in patients with severe AS undergoing TAVR.

Objective To establish a human luminal breast cancer stem cell(BCSC)model and investigate the inhibitory effects of astragaloside Ⅳ(AS-Ⅳ)on BCSC growth.Methods MCF-7 breast cancer cells were cultured in stem cell-specific medium to induce BCSC formation.The BCSCs were then divided into a blank control group and an AS-Ⅳ treatment group,both groups were given PBS or AS-Ⅳ treatment.Morphological changes were observed after intervention.The therapeutic efficacy of AS-Ⅳ was evaluated using 3D spheroid formation and cell viability assays.Transcriptomic profiling and gene expression analysis were performed to elucidate the underlying mechanisms.Results Compared with the MCF7 breast cancer cells,MCF7 breast cancer stem cell mammospheres exhibited accelerated growth(P＜0.01)and significantly increased expression of the stemness marker ALDH1A1(P＜0.01).Further comparison with the blank control group revealed that astragaloside Ⅳ(AS-Ⅳ)treatment significantly inhibited MCF7 breast cancer stem cell proliferation(P＜0.001)and slowed mammosphere growth(P＜0.01).Transcriptomic analysis demonstrated that differentially expressed genes(DEGs)induced by stem cell modeling and AS-Ⅳ intervention were enriched in the cellular senescence signaling pathway.AS-Ⅳ intervention substantially increased the number of SA-β-gal-positive cells(P＜0.01).RT-PCR analysis confirmed that AS-Ⅳsignificantly upregulated mRNA expression of IL-1α(P＜0.01),P21(P＜0.001),and P53(P＜0.05)in MCF7 breast cancer stem cells.Conclusion Astragaloside Ⅳ suppresses the growth of human luminal breast cancer stem cells by inducing cellular senescence.

Objective To compare the short-term outcomes and postoperative complications of endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD)and endoscopic mucosal resection(EMR)in the treatment of early colorectal cancer.Methods A total of 110 patients with early colorectal cancer who were admitted to Suining Central Hospital from June 2020 to June 2022 were prospectively enrolled and randomly assigned to two groups by random number table.Of them,58 patients underwent ESD and 52 patients underwent EMR.Operation related indexes,inflammatory factors(interleukin-6[IL-6],tumor necrosis factor-α[TNF-α],and C-reactive protein[CRP])before operation and 3 days after operation,and postoperative quality of life index(QL-Index)were compared between the two groups.The complications of the two groups were observed.Results The operation time,hospital stay,postoperative exhaust time,defecation time,and intraoperative blood loss in ESD group were lower than those in EMR group,and the rates of complete resection and en bloc resection in ESD group were higher than those in EMR group(P<0.05).The levels of IL-6,TNF-α and CRP were increased 3 d after operation in both groups,but the levels of IL-6,TNF-α and CRP in ESD group were lower than those in EMR group(P<0.05).The total score of QL-Index and the scores of activity,daily activities,health,and overall situation in ESD group were significantly higher than those in EMR group(P<0.05).The incidence of complications in ESD group was higher than that in EMR group,without significant difference(P>0.05).Conclusion The pocket ESD can effectively promote postoperative rehabilitation,increase resection rate,reduce postoperative inflammation,and improve the quality of life of patients with early colorectal cancer,and there is no obvious complication.

Establishing a one-stop diagnosis and treatment mode centered on patients and linked by diseases is of great significance for optimizing the medical process and improving the medical experience. In March 2024, a tertiary hospital integrated pediatric outpatient and emergency resources, established a pediatric diagnosis and treatment island through reasonable department settings, strengthened talent team construction, optimized diagnosis and treatment processes, and established supporting guarantee mechanisms. It was officially put into use in June of the same year, providing one-stop diagnosis and treatment services for children and achieving the goal of " not leaving the island for minor illnesses and not leaving the hospital for major illnesses". Before the operation of island (January May 2024), the complaint rate and waiting time for pediatric outpatient and emergency department were 39 cases per 100 000 patients and 15 to 30 minutes, respectively; After operation (June August 2024), the complaint rate and waiting time decreased to 17 cases per 100 000 people and 10 to 20 minutes respectively; The average monthly comprehensive income of outpatient and emergency departments increased by 33%. The pediatric diagnosis and treatment island mode could assist in the sustainable high-quality development of pediatrics in hospital, and provide references for optimizing outpatient and emergency department management in other tertiary public hospitals. In the future, we should further enrich the service content of the island and strengthen information technology construction.

Objective To explore the effect of different post-processing methods of total spinal CT angiography(CTA)for displaying spinal dural arteriovenous fistula(SDAVF).Methods Total spinal CTA data of 55 patients with SDAVF were retrospectively analyzed.Traditional post-processing of original CTA images(modified tissue growth boneless volume rendering[VR]and full-range axial maximum intensity projection[MIP])were performed,while the axial,sagittal and coronal MIP reconstructions,axial,sagittal and coronal VR reconstructions,as well as axial,sagittal and coronal MIP+VR reconstructions of original CTA images on lesion layers were completed,respectively.Taken digital subtraction angiography(DSA)as the gold standards,a 5-point scale was used to subjectively evaluate the effect of displaying the location,the range and feeding artery of fistula shown on CTA images based on different post-processing methods.Results No significant difference of subjective score of location nor feeding artery of fistula was found among axial MIP,VR and MIP+VR images(all P＞0.05),which were all higher than that of CTA images reconstructed using other post-processing methods(all P＜0.05).Meanwhile,no significant difference of subjective scores of the range of SDAVF was detected among sagittal MIP,VR and MIP+VR images(all P＞0.05),which were all higher than that of CTA images obtained using other post-processing methods(all P＜0.05).Conclusion The location and feeding artery of SDAVF could be observed based on axial MIP,VR and MIP+VR reconstructions of the total spinal CTA,while sagittal MIP,VR and MIP+VR reconstructions were conducive to display the range of SDAVF.Combination of multiple post-processing methods was helpful for comprehensive understanding the composition and range of SDAVF.

Objective To develop a risk management system for complications associated with peripheral venous indwelling needles and to evaluate its application effect in order to reduce the risk of related complications.Methods We designed a comprehensive risk management system for peripheral intravenous indwelling needle complications,integrating specialized evidence-based guidelines with clinical practice insights,including 5 modules:intelligent assessment and decision support,intelligent inspection reminders,educational modules,collaborative case management procedures,and a knowledge base.Patients admitted to the neurology and internal classification metabolism departments of a tertiary hospital in Jilin Province were conveniently selected as the research subjects.Patients were assigned to a control group(from May to July 2022,before the implementation of the system)and an experimental group(from September to December 2022,after the implementation of the system).The incidence of complications,duration of indwelling needle,compliance rate of core indicators for nursing quality and number of nursing consultations were compared between the groups.Additionally,a self-administered questionnaire was used to assess clinical nurses'evaluations of the system.Results A total of 189 patients were included in the experimental group and 177 patients in the control group.The incidence of complications associated with peripheral intravenous indwelling needles was lower than that in the control group.The duration of indwelling peripheral intravenous needles was longer than that in the control group.The quality compliance rate of peripheral venous indwelling needle care in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group,and the number of consultation cases in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group.Comparisons between the 2 groups showed statistically significant differences for all indicators(P＜0.05).The nurses'recognition rates for the system's user-friendliness,professional guidance,and patient benefit were 77.78％,81.74％,and 82.13％,respectively.Conclusion The application of a peripheral vein indwelling needle complication risk management system can reduce the incidence of complications,prolong the duration of indwelling,and improve nursing quality.Nurses have a high recognition of this system.

Locally advanced thyroid cancer (LATC) can seriously invade the important organs of the neck, such as the trachea, esophagus and carotid artery, and has a poor prognosis. It is one of the leading causes of death in thyroid cancer. Diagnosis and treatment for LATC often involve multidisciplinary fields, the difficulty and risk of surgical are very high, and high-quality multidisciplinary comprehensive diagnosis and treatment can obtain a better prognosis. In order to realize the proceduralization, standardization and normalization of the LATC diagnosis and treatment model, the seven-step method for diagnosis and treatment of LATC is summarized by our center.
